Oops! I always heard it was Buddy, but either way is good for me. Royce

I think Buddy Hall once said, "if the pockets are too big, just up the bet and they'll tighten up quite a bit!". Anytime the money gets up there and things are going to slow down. And that's on any table size too. There's quite a bit of cash on the line in down in Houston. If that's the...

Kim I was thinking those had Xylotex controllers. If so, I think they were 8 microsteps instead of 10. You can always just check the travel once you have it set. Royce

Kim You really need to know if your screws are 4mm pitch, or 4mm lead. If it measures 4mm from one thread to the next adjacent thread and it's 2 start, then the lead is 8mm. If it's 2mm from thread to thread and it's 2 start, then the lead is 4mm. Most likely, it's an 8mm lead. They're at...

Mike You can just search for "carbide slitting saw" on Ebay. Here's one I've used in the past. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbide-slitting-saw-OD-30mm-Thickness-0-5mm-Korea-/261668927627?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cecaef88b Royce

Guys, please be careful! If the saw blade says Max RPM 8000, the please don't spin it faster! There are carbide slitting saws out there that can spin faster. Royce

Absolutely agree! We cut our 3 level tenon, thread that tenon, install the joint collars with epoxy, face, drill, bore and thread for the insert or shaft threads, glue in the insert if it gets one, and face the end of the shaft all in one session on the machine. In goes a "Partial", out comes...

It looks like it should work! I would recommend one thing though. What you will find is that as you put more and more cues or shafts in it, the added pressure against the screws will begin to loosen the ones you've already tightened. Basically, the first one pushes on the cross beam will give...

Look at post #4. It was pool 300. Here's a link to Alex doing a demo of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNUSM_R38_E Royce

I'm not sure about the tour you're looking for, but if you're looking for a pure offense game, you should try pool 300. Pool 300 is a game Don Owen came up with a few years back. We developed it all the way a working league here in Dallas. It only lasted for a couple of seasons, but it's a...

Just as a clarification, when people talk about a "ball" thread, they're referring to the thread profile. This is a custom designed thread profile that was first used on the "Radial" pin made by the UniLoc company. It's not any kind of standard profile. To my knowledge, there are 2 ball thread...

Sorry, but an acme thread and a ball thread are two completely different animals. As well as Acme and National Pipe Thread. They aren't the same either. It can't be an acme thread and NPT at the same time. So, can we see an actual 3/8-8 ball thread tap? Royce

Perry I'm curious about the 3/8-8 Ball thread tap you listed above. I've followed the link, and the tap shown does not appear to be a ball thread (Radial Style), nor does it appear to be 8 TPI. Is this just a picture of a different tap used for the auction? Also, is this tap correct for the...

dom poppa I own an ultimate rugged case now. I also have a pretty good idea of what would damage cues or shafts. I don't see anything in this case that is likely or even could damage my cues. The case is very well made, and should hold up very well. Much better than most other cases I've...

Donnie I'm not that familiar with the Leadshine products. Does it use a "chargepump"? The reason I ask is this. If you use a standard parallel port output to turn your spindle on and off, and you don't have it run through a break out board that uses a chargepump for safety, then you could have...

Are you talking about the milling spindle on/off and speed? Or are you talking about the lathe spindle speed? If it's milling, I would just use Mach3 to turn it on and off, and manually adjust the VFD for spindle speed. Most inlay work is usually done at the same speed anyway. If it's the...

Dave The Gecko G540 is really hard to beat. I've got at least 6 of them and they run very well. They're not as strong as the bigger Gecko v231v's I have on my inlay machines but they run at very high rapid's for lower cycle times. You should be able to run the G540 with decent motors at 100...

You could certainly contact Steve Lomax and have him refinish the cue. It would come out like brand new. Royce
